Bloodborne: Walking the Demon’s Souls Dark Path?
The Sony Playstation.com Bloodborne game screenshots and related videos illuminate some of the game’s playable experience, but I’m trying to look beyond spotlighted, captured specifics and visualize a bigger picture–the game that lurks in the shadows, the game that will be available March 24th. Bloodborne’s most important development component, the game’s story, may set this […]

The Foundation Trilogy a’ la YouTube
Since I’ve already had my say about why the Hard Science Fiction label is a misnomer (see my article titled Fantasy Fans’ Sci-Fi Ain’t Sci-Fi), I have decided to share some work by Isaac Asimov, a writer some consider to be a master of science fiction and fantasy.

Bradbury 13 a’ la YouTube
Ray Bradbury’s works are some of my greatest inspirations. Probably best known for Fahrenheit 451 and The Martian Chronicles, his speculative fiction career spanned for more than sixty years. But his efforts reach far beyond my interest and before my time, his influence affecting many artists, writers, and others. Not long ago, a wonderful radio […]
